Lenovo’s latest ThinkPads are the first to pack Whiskey Lake Chips

Ever since the announcement, the customers
were very excited. Lenovo, the PC giant finally gave in the soothing effect to
the customers by launching two news models to its most affordable L series of
ThinkPad devices, ThinkPad L390 and ThinkPad L390 Yoga. The normal/regular
version is priced at $659 whereas the updated version is priced for $889. The
only new introduction to the models happen to be the Whiskey Lake Chips. Apart
from these chips, everything seems to be quite similar to that of its previous
models.

Whiskey Lake Chips: Different from Predecessors

The Lenovo ThinkPads support the 13.3 inch FHD
display, dTPM 2.0 encryption support and fingerprint sensor. The updated
version L390 Yoga has the Active Pen stylus with two updated camera features.
It is being anticipated some similar additions will be made to the 14 and 15
inch L models. Although Lenovo has given out no official announcement, all
these anticipations may come true in the coming time.

The 8th generation powered Whiskey Lake Chips
distinguishes the latest models from that of its predecessors. As a result, the
potential customers can expect a boost of Kraby
Lake-R and has the extended support of Gigabit WiFi. The two laptops are
actually quite advanced and better than the L380 and L380 Yoga models. The
laptop runs in the 45 Wh batteries and with the ThinkPads you do get the extra
battery life. The L390 Yoga model also allows the hinge to get twisted.This
further ensures a complete 360-degrees turn thereby working as an efficient
touchscreen tablet.

Whiskey Lake Chips: Lenovo’s ideas

Boasting of the features, Lenovo mentioned,
“The ThinkPad portfolio has always offered a broad choice to give customers the
specific device they need. The updated ThinkPad L390 and L390 Yoga are no
different. Positioned with price-sensitive business customers and professional
consumers in mind, the L series maintains the ThinkPad reputation for
ruggedness and durability.” It further added, “Sitting below our ThinkPad X1
premium laptops and the mainstream corporate workhorse T and X series, the
updated L390 and L390 are designed to provide end-users with mainstream
performance and value.”

As far as the script is concerned, it is
pretty much same to the previous models. The mundane computer announcements of
the CES 2019 have been made to ensure the savvy move by the company. This will
help the ThinkPad L series to be prominent even when new features are added.
